What CD-ROM programs do you have at home?
How often do you use them? Who else in your family uses them?
Why do you like them? When do you use them?
Write answers on the board.
Step 2 Teaching
1.Talk about travelling around the world while sitting at home or in the classroom. Then ask Ss to read the description in Part A1.
2.Tell Ss that they are going to find out about an educational program which teaches English through travelling around in Australia and New Zealand. Ask them what they expect to find out. Elicit some general information from Ss and write them on the board, e.g.

3.Play the recorder for Part A1. Tell Ss to listen carefully and fill in as many blanks as they can. Play the recorder again and tell Ss to check their answers and listen for any answers they have missed.
4.Ask six Ss to read out one sentence each. Write the answers on the board to ensure that all Ss have the correct information. Explain the context of Part A2. The pictures on the left are icons, and the words on the right describe the functions of the icons. Tell Ss that there are two parts to this exercise. First, they have to write the names of the icons. Then they have to match each icon its function.
5. Ask Ss to gueSs the function of each icon by drawing lines in pencil. Play the recorded for Part A2. Ask Ss to listen for the names of the icons. Play it again, then check that all Ss have the correct names for the icons. For stronger classes, ask Ss to start matching the icons with their functions.
6. Check answers as a class. Ask four Ss to each read out the name of an icon and its function.
7. Part A3 is a summary of the information in Parts A1 and A2 on page 50. Ss are bringing together information from the previous two sections to write an e-mail about the “Daily English” CD-ROM program. Ask Ss to read the e-mail for general understanding before they begin filling in the blank.
8 Divide the class into pairs. Tell Ss to read the conversation on Page 51 aloud, then change roles and read the conversation again.
9. Tell Ss to look at the information about ‘Daily English ’ on page 50 again. Ask them to think of some question they might like to ask about it.
